Luckily, every second of the Ryans' adorable meeting—every caress, smirk, and blush—was caught on camera. Looking sharp in their tuxedos—Reynolds' gray and Gosling's black—the hunky Canadian actors hugged and chatted backstage, and even took a moment to point at each other in disbelief. Both men sported a bit of lumberjack scruff, and wore their hair slicked back effortlessly.

It was a big night for Reynolds, 40, who recently welcomed his second daughter with wife Blake Lively. The actor took home the award for Best Comedy Actor for his turn in Deadpool, and also nabbed the coveted Entertainer of the Year award. At the end of his heartwarming acceptance speech, the funnyman thanked his family with a touch of his signature sarcasm. "I also want to thank my wife and, for no reason at all, I suppose my children," he quipped. Although we're staring to wonder whether he still had the other Ryan on his mind.
